Cash vs. Annuity

The advertised jackpot/grand prize is an estimated amount which is paid as a 30-payment graduated annuity or, at the election of the winner, in a single lump sum payment of the cash value of the annuity jackpot/grand prize (subject to State and Federal taxes). If the winner chooses the annuity, the annual payments will be increased each year by a percentage set out in the MUSL Mega Millions Product Group Rules. Any individual jackpot prize share that has a cash value of less than $250,000 may be paid in a single payment. Annuity payments are guaranteed upon death to a deceased winner's estate or to a person designated by a judicial order.

Please Note

Jackpot prize is estimated and will be divided equally among all winning tickets.

All set prizes, including Megaplier prizes, may be reduced if claims exceed available prize fund.
